These are part of a set inherited from my mother, who used it for special occasions as I was growing up in the 1950s and ‘60s. Experts have described it as a vintage (1920’s) gold-rimmed set for special occasions. The beautiful pattern is not a standard factory pattern, so it is thought to have been specially produced for a particular customer. The value of the entire set has been appraised at $2400-2600 at retail. I am listing smaller groups of items in separate entries. I am willing to discuss offers for all or part of the set.
This listing includes 2 teacups, 5 saucers, 2 dessert bowls, and a small plate, all in perfect condition. Dimensions are given for one of the cups.
Originally complete with 12 settings and full serving items, natural wear and tear has led to chipping and breakage of some of the other pieces. The remaining serving items are listed separately, as are additional chipped place setting components: 5 dinner plates, 4 salad plates, 4 bread-and-butter plates, 2 soup bowls, and 6 dessert bowls.
